LQ #1) Draw the substitution product that would
result if the Br bonded to the para carbon
instead of the benzylic carbon.
Even though we can draw this product on paper,
it never forms in the flask. Do you know why you
should never propose this as a major product?

Whoa! What can make an aromatic
ring give up aromaticity?
If being aromatic is great, is there anything that can destroy aromaticity?
